tahun 1600
• Tipe B: tidak diketahui erupsi
sejak 1600 namun diketahui
pernah erupsi dan mungkin
akan erupsi di masa depan.
• Tipe C: hanya mempunyai
manifestasi panas di kawah
• Pada umumnya erupsi
pertama dalam zaman sejarah
menelan korban lebih banyak.
• Gunung api yang lama tidak
erupsi atau dorman/istirahat
perlu diwaspadai.

Tectonic setting
Small amounts of gas and (or) low viscosity (runny) magma will
form an effusive eruption.
Where the magma just trickles out of the volcano (lava flow)

Volcanic fissure vents are flat,
linear cracks through which lava
emerges.
Stratigraphic analysis
includes analyzing
tephra and lava
deposits and dating
these to give volcano
eruption patterns,
with estimated cycles
of intense activity and
size of eruptions
